I learned of Susan RoAne about ten years ago when our first Success Secrets guest Patrick Morin introduced me to her best-selling book ‘How to Work a Room.’ Patrick said it was one of the key books which helped him achieve his success.
After reading this book, it sparked my thirst to understand and acquire this quintessential skill for not only business but life. Whether you are at a business function or at a cocktail party, Susan gives practical approaches to assist you to be more confident dealing with a neighbor, a CEO or the most difficult situation, someone you just don’t know.
While I have gotten to know Susan as Facebook friends for the last couple of years, it was a real joy actually getting to talk live with her. We both are former teachers, so it was easy to see how we connected quickly. Susan is genuine, generous and someone who truly knows how to be “Work a Room.” She gave so much of her time, beyond the normal hour we usually schedule for a Success Secrets podcast, so we were able to get some bonus insights from this amazing woman.
